It’s during the holiday season that I spend a lot more nights in. More movies in bed. A lot more time catching up on late night reading. Lighting some candles as I cook myself dinner. And when I’m having these super simple nights at home here in New York City, I immediately change into a fresh set of lingerie and a super cozy pair of pajamas. Eve’s Temptationspecializes in gorgeous, luxurious bras, panties, and sleepwear. It’s designer intimates at by far, the best price. I love how they play with sexy lace, classic colors, and a perfect snug fit. For my body type, I like giving myself a little extra shape and a little more curve. Hence, my obsession with the Teresa bra, lightly lined with full support, and a very subtle curve. It’s pretty fun walking around the house by myself in sexy lingerie. I love my body more than ever right now, and so I’m treating it to really comfortable, well-made intimates and amazing fabrics.

My love for really well-made lingerie continues. I’ve just discovered the perfect set from my go-to lingerie brand Natori here at Macy’s. This beautiful royal blue hue designed by Josie Natori matches everything from my curtains to my favorite blanket. It’s a color of comfort. It’s a completely new take on the classic tee-shirt bra. The little lace and sheer accents make this super comfortable set extra luxurious. When I find something that works well on my body, hugs it in all the right places, and feels amazing on my skin, I just stick with it. I stick with what works and feels best for me, in any situation. It could be for a night of dancing in my favorite white tee. It could be hiking in a perfect pair of blue jeans. It could be on set at a shoot with a little silk dress. It’s in all of these situations that my undergarments play a huge role. I’m all for anything that allows me to move, and be completely comfortable in my own skin. Josie Natori’s elegant collection ranges from 30A to 44G, flattering women of all shapes and sizes. 2017 is for owning your own body in all of it’s uniqueness. I think I’ll take this set in black and pale pinkto add to my collection.

I always feel most comfortable in my own skin when I’m with my older sister, Dylana. She’s the lady behind the lens for most of my photographs, and of course has starred alongside me for numerous campaigns. I never mind stripping down in a pair of undies for one of her artistic shots. As sisters, we actually have almost identical bodies. Tall, boyish, athletic. I guess you can call it a dancer’s body. Our motto is “imperfection is beauty.” Without imperfections, what would make us all each so special? Imperfections are inspiring. They make your think and see differently. Imperfections should be embraced and celebrated. Who cares if you’re not the girl next door. Growing up, I never looked like anyone in my class. Everything from my cultural background to my height. Not to mention, I had dreams that were larger than life, but with fashion, music, and art, I was able to find myself. Find and unleash what makes you feel beautiful.

I am religiously wearingSkarlett Blue‘s latest lingerie collection. I worked with their fit specialist here in NYC to take home some really delicious lingerie sets that hug my body in all the right places. I think what I love most about working with their team is how close they pay attention to details. The lace trimmings. The colors. Noticing how a lace racerback or embroidered strap bra can peek out from a tank top. Chic. Bottoms that are so completely seamless that you can throw on even your silkiest slip dress and not worry about any unwanted panty lines. It’s lingerie you can trust will enhance your final look. These pieces to me are extra cozy and warm, but still bring out my sultry side with their beautiful array of colors. It’s funny, I feel more confident when my lingerie has a beautiful fit, and a little character. Your body is special, so treat it well and only wear what feels the most comfortable on your skin. Meet two of my favorite sets.
